AppRanks verdict
Generated from live marketplace data — refreshed daily
YAY Images is a category-leading WordPress app with a limited review volume. Category data on the canonical marketplace listing is currently incomplete, so AppRanks falls back to platform-wide rather than category-relative comparison for this listing. 4 reviews put it in the early-traction tier — useful for early-stage stores willing to be on the leading edge. Early-traction review counts are sensitive to single launch periods or feature events, so a 30-day re-check before bigger commitments often resolves whether the trend is sustained. Paid-only pricing means evaluating fit on the marketplace listing or via the developer's documentation before installing. AppRanks tracks rating, review count, pricing tier, and category position daily — the figures on this page reflect the most recent scrape from the canonical WordPress Plugin Directory listing.
Pros
- +High average rating (5.0★) signals consistent merchant satisfaction
- +Published by Bjorn Sjogren — established developer track record
Cons
- −Limited review base (4) — ratings can shift significantly with new feedback

How YAY Images works
Show full descriptionShow less
You know that images increase interaction and engagement with your blog readers, right? And that they lead to more sales conversions, right? Of course you do!
But you’re also annoyed by using three different platforms to find, edit, and upload high-quality, legal images. (That’s valuable time you could spend watching cat videos.)
It might seem overly dramatic, but if you spend five minutes on each photo you source, modify, and upload you’re losing dozens of hours each year to fiddling and clicking – which is why we created this plugin.
With our plugin, you can find the high-res, professional caliber images you want and customize + optimize + upload them – all in one place.

With our 5 million photos and illustrations you’ll always find the perfect something and you’ll find it in seconds with our visual search option. You’ll have more time to write blog posts, promote your work on social media, or even step away from the computer.
To make things as easy as possible, we’ve built an image editor into the plugin so you can crop, add filters and text within WordPress and our images are SEO-friendly as well, with relevant keywords placed in the link.
We know you’ll love our plugin, our images, and our editing tools which is why we’re giving you five images of your choice – free. All you have to do is install the plugin and register as a user from the plugin – no need for a credit card.
If you need more images, we have the world’s best offer (literally!) for legal, professional images. For just $9.90 a month, you get unlimited access to online images, our visual image search, and our editing tools. Add these images to your blog posts, social media, or other online design and marketing projects.
